Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume is an annotated bibliographical survey of doctoral dissertations written at North American institutions of higher learning and treating topics pertaining to Old Norse-Icelandic language, literature and culture. It is intended as a tool for basic research and also offers insights into trends and tendencies in scholarship within the field of Old Norse-Icelandic in the USA and Canada from the last decades of the 19th century to late-1995. Specifically, it demonstrates a gradual shift from studies in language and style, firmly rooted in Germanic philology, to anthropological studies and literary analyses of individual works or themes. Author, director and institution indices appear at the end of the volume. To facilitate research, Wolf provides a subject index which includes concepts in addition to the titles of works and proper names.
